Kingswood Golf Centre

I booked a 2 ball through golf now on a " hot deal " and paid £25 each. On arrival at the pro shop we were told we should have booked direct. This would have cost £20 each and we would get a free drink at the bar, half the course was shut due to extensive maintenance and to be honest the rest of the course should have been shut also ! The green were the worst I have ever extremely pitted and hardly any grass. The fairways were not much better. I understand these are new owners and are sorting the course out. In my opinion it's unplayable. On a positive the staff are great and the club house is brand new and very nice. We won't be going back until at least next summer.

Turned up to play 18 holes, the clubhouse looks nice and the staff are friendly, seems like that have a lot of things to do… unfortunately that’s where the good ends. course was under repair i believe but not told prior and didn’t see many signs stating so, we played the first 2 holes the 1st and the 8th but the greens was in such terrible condition as were the tee boxes. left after 2 holes

Was a little disappointed to learn on arrival that 9 of the holes were closed for improvement but saying that, those that were playable were challenging and excellently laid out. The greens have suffered from the heatwaves and were bobbly and bare in places and there was a fair bit of walking between the playable holes. The holes were all different and enjoyable with plenty of water to challenge us. I really liked it and it will be an absolute gem once all the owner's planned improvements are complete. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Terrible greens rest of the place was excellent. Hopefully the greens will be sorted inn the off season

Loved the course layout shame about the greens overall enjoyed it playing there Tomorrow 29th August gonna see if it plays any better after the recent rains we have had club /bar and pro shop all excellent and staff are amazing get them greens sorted and you can definitely have more of my money 100% .

Possibly a place on the up as there is clearly a lot of money being spent on facilities and the lodges, which are active work sites. The greens are bone dry, bobbly, browned and cracked. They haven’t seen meaningful water for weeks or possibly even months but are just about playable. No rakes in bunkers and ball cleaners are rare. The course is however great value even with these things in mind. It has a good variety of holes and plenty of water to watch out for. Currently not rated for WHS/handicaps but there is a lot of potentially here, hopefully with a winter of investment. Very friendly and welcoming pro shop staff and they do a round and pint deal for £20.

This is the worse course iv ever played to say it’s privately owned iv played better council courses! The greens well csnt call them that as it was just bumpy mud! Never again will I play here! It’s less than a one star!

Staff club and fair ways where spot on, needs need a lot of work but overall good for the price

The entrance and staff were incredibly friendly

The tees and fairways aren’t the best

But

Wait until you get to the first green (we renamed them BROWNS)

These haven’t seen a green keeper in years

Sadly they don’t get any better

Won’t be returning until I here they have a green keeper

Local course and I've played here many times. Last few years it was really going down hill and the lack of maintenance was obvious. However following a recent and obvious investment I was hopeful things would be turned around. The club house has been refurbished, as has the driving range, the mini golf and there was some new nice looking buggies. They have bought lots of expensive green keeping equipment and closed for 2 weeks so I was hopeful the greens would be better.

However, the greens still continue to be a problem. Some on the front 9 have definitely got better but the back 9 greens are awful. They are all sandy, bobbly and the 18th was full of duck excrement. No point getting putter out unless you are within 3 feet.

It is a real shame because it's otherwise a good challenging course. However it seems the recent investment as been more focused on making it a better scenic environment for the lodges (which I'm sure are super profitable) rather than sorting the greens out. I honestly think they'd be better off closing back 9 and using the space to put more lodges on and focus on making the front 9 greens better condition.

Spent some money on grass maintenance, driving range, shop, bar & buggies. Looks great. Desperate for some attention to the greens though. Overall 4 stars, could easily be 5 once greens are sorted.

New course. Will be better in a month or so. Will play again in future.

Great layout and on doorstep for me’ needs some rakes for the bunkers

Good set up with plenty of water hazards, greens need another month of weathering after being scarified.

Simple things letting the course down such as no yard markers, no rakes in the bunkers or signs directing to next tee.

A lot of dog leg holes would benefit from a marker pole in fairway or a hole plan on card or on the tee.

I think the course has been taken over recently so hope to see a big improvement next visit.

This corse was dog shhh , rough ground on teen box fairway and greens.

Was like playing in shrecks swamp. Litter all over doesn't seem to be looked after ,no map of corse on score card no signs directing you to the next hole.

Not good for any leavle of golfer might be better playing Wii sports.

Played this course for the first time earlier this month and found it the best we have played for the money. Obviously it was wet but still enjoyed playing here. Could do with better signage to find your way round and maps of each hole would help. Also, no coloured posts for water and out of bounds which would help. A few simple changes would make it better. Greens were a bit long but it has been wet so hopefully soon better weather will mean the greens and fairways will get a cut but overall we really enjoyed playing here.

After a long absence from golf, I put on my big boy trousers and hit this course.

I was a bit concerned regarding recent reviews but was plesently suprised. The tees, faiways, rough were kept in an excellent condition. There was the occasional missing rake in a bunker, and some of the greems were looking tired but most where in a good condition for the price point of the course.

There was no goose poo to be seen, however my only concern was the couple who had a dog and was picnicing on one of the holes.

Staff are incredibly friendly, lots of parking and the option to have a drink after.

Would have no issues going back

Following cold temperatures and harsh frosts , course was on main tees and greens , during round course began to thaw ,became a bit boggy ,but still some run on the ball .

For the time of year , just what we expect in this area , similar price band to other clubs with same conditions

Over the last probably 6 years we have been travelling to Kingswood and always had a great time a few months ago we came down to play and was a little shocked on the standard it was , it was a right mess on the course but we put it down to weather conditions as it was throwing it down , today we went thinking it would be in great condition after the hot weather and then the rain the last few days ,but no we was wrong , the tee boxes were terrible the greens were like putting on a fairway just long over grown patchy not looked after at all , the buggy we hired ran flat after 9 holes which we then decided to call it a day , I did speak to a few players who said that they are looking to sell the course so maybe it's being run down to sell for building land , because as a golf course it won't sell ,

Opinion it will be a very long time before we travel again down from Leeds to play it , Thorne next door is amazing go there instead ,
